Lucentia

I actually did convert half my ogors into women, all you really have to do is stick a vague top on them and trim any moustaches off, add some scraggly hair if you're feeling adventurous (Sisters of Slaughter whips make handy braids), I can't imagine ogor society puts any huge emphasis on beauty standards, or at least ogor standards of beauty are rather different to our own.

I was just praising the cover art in the DoK thread, I was wondering if they were going to use the Morathi art already shown as the cover, but this piece is a better fit, imo.

In order of likelihood: -The rumoured sea elves, probably rolling in the corsair models for good measure (and maybe the Order Serpentis stuff as well?) neither of those sub-factions got traits in GHB17 and have a modest number of kits between them. -Spooky ghost pirates, I do think we will probably see a wholly new death faction at some point, even with the Nagash battletome, but I would imagine any new death faction to tie into Nagash's grand plan in some way, and I don't know if undead sailors fit that necessarily? -Dreadfleet 2.0. Probably not.... I guess some sort of Man O' War rebranding could fit this bill too? But I don't know how much interest there would be in that. But that's all meaningless conjecture cos it's definitely a fishperson battletome.

I will say for my general dislike of Orruk models their faces are very fun to paint, I'll give them that.

I finished up the orruks, and I guess that's the end of my Shadespire painting adventure for the time being. I've never been a huge fan of the GW orc design look, so for me at least these were the least interesting models in the range, the boss is pretty good, but the other three are kinda static and samey, but, regardless, I do appreciate their face-smashing play-style, so I'm looking fowards to getting them on the board at some point!

I did some bonies. Had a good time painting up the rusty bits, I've never done that before. These textured grave-earth bases aren't as much fun as the more detailed Stormcast/Bloodbound Shadespire bases though.

I finished up my Khorneboyz as well, nothing too special, I just kinda slapdashed them cos I've been playing a lot of Shadespire lately and it was annoying me to have the stormcast all painted and the other team just primed, plus I've already painted a bunch of bloodreavers for Warhammer Quest, and whilst I don't have anything against shirtless, leather-bound men I don't find them hugely exciting to paint, even though the sculpts for Garrek's Reavers are notably excellent. I also got the Sepulchral Guard box for my Bday, already glued them up and played a few little test games, looking forwards to painting up them skellies.

I only have the base box so far, and I'm pretty slow when it comes to painting, so I only have the Stormcast done so far.
